Sun Jianjun defeated the superior forces of Cheng Yin, Zhang Heng and others many times, and finally made Ma Teng, the strongest in the Xiliang coalition army, have to deal with him. Being able to suppress many arrogant soldiers under his command as a Qiang-Han mixed-race child, Ma Teng's own martial arts skills are definitely not to be underestimated, and he is only one step away from the real "10,000 enemies" level.

In fact, being able to cultivate the top five strong men in the world such as "Jin Ma Chao", and even the later "ten thousand enemies" such as Pang De are willing to drive it, how can Ma Teng be a weakling?

As soon as Ma Teng made a move, Sun Jian was restrained. Ma Chaoqi was still young at the time, and his strength was already good, and he was also a chess opponent against Sun Ben, and he would meet a good talent. And Pound has not yet comprehended the essence of "ten thousand enemies" at this time, and he has already made Cheng Pu, Qiao Rui and others suffer.

From the end of March to the end of April, for a whole month, Sun Jian and Ma Teng played eleven games, with seven wins and four losses. It seems that Ma Teng did not have much of the upper hand. But in fact, the Liangzhou Army relied on its own mobility superiority and had obvious initiative on the battlefield. If the Liangzhou army is defeated, it will be a small defeat, and if it wins, it will be a big victory, and compared with the number of beheadings, it is fifty percent more than the Yuan-Sun coalition army!

Losing a small number of troops, Sun Jian would not take it too seriously. Anyway, Yuan Shu's foundation is strong, and if he dies for 180,000, he can replenish Sun Jian from the rear. However, the logistical pressure brought by the Liangzhou Rangers made it a little difficult for Sun Jian to support.

Liangzhou multi-cavalry. A considerable number of the rebels in Liangzhou came from the nomadic tribes of the Qiang people, and the mastery of horsemanship is needless to say. The Liangzhou rebels, who had been fighting with Dong Zhuo for many years and had long been equipped with bilateral stirrups, had already explored a set of effective tactics against strong enemies, especially powerful infantry groups, in their years of conquest against the enemy. The frontal battlefield cannot be won. You can also take a detour to the enemy's flank and rear to attack the enemy's food route!

When Ma Teng faced Sun Jian, Han Sui, the leader of the Liangzhou army, did not and could not be idle. Although he must sit in Chang'an City and stabilize the shelf of the court, he will not watch the other Liangzhou generals fight hard in front of him. If Han Sui was really such a shallow person, he would never be able to achieve his current position.

The battle has been fought for almost ten years. Han Sui, who can be regarded as proficient in the art of war, adopts a very simple approach. He sent his henchmen Cheng Gongying and Yan Xing to command an elite cavalry under his subordinates. This elite cavalry is a light cavalry, not good at frontal breakthroughs, but can easily move through enemy lines, endure very low supply supplies, and insist on a strong will to fight.

Taking advantage of the defensive gap opened by Ma Teng in a victory over Sun Jian, Cheng Gongying took three thousand elite horsemen. Breaking into the vast space between Jingzhaoyin and Nanyang, it became a hard nail in the rear of Sun Jian's army.

With these 3,000 people wandering on the grain road behind him, Yuan Shu had to send double the elite soldiers to escort him every time he transported grain. Even so, Cheng Gongying still successfully plundered and burned the military rations that Sun Jian needed repeatedly. Even Ji Ling, the general appointed by Yuan Shu as the grain supervisor, was stabbed with a spear by Yan Xing, a fierce general under Han Sui, and almost died during a grain transportation operation.

almost broke Ji Ling. Yuan Shu was suddenly furious. He was arrogant, and he didn't think of those despicable Liangzhou barbarians at all. It's so difficult. Faced with a series of painful defeats that happened on Sun Jian's army's grain road, Yuan Shu was embarrassed and angry, and immediately used Lu Bu and others, who were originally disdainful of him, to be left aside.

Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, Cheng Lian and others, after the defeat in Chang'an at the end of last year, ignored the arrogant persuasion, but chose to defect to Yuan Shu, who could barely be regarded as a political ally. After all, Yuan Shu's status and prestige. It's not that the insolent remnants of the Yellow Turban can be compared.

However, at that time, Yuan Shu happened to have a temper of the powerful son. He thought that Lu Bu's title of Marquis Wen surpassed his own, and he treated Lu Bu and his party a little lukewarmly. It's just that at this moment, Yuan Shu had a headache with Cheng Gongying and Yan Xing's three thousand rangers. I had to pinch my nose and send Lu Bu, Zhang Liao and others out, hoping that these would-be nephews could have some effect and curb the cavalry threat of the Liangzhou rebels.

Then, Lu Bu soon gave Yuan Shu a huge surprise.

Lu Bu, known as the "flying general", is unparalleled in the world in riding and archery kung fu. He didn't ask Yuan Shu for reinforcements, but with more than 100 people from Cheng Lian, Wei Yue and other cronies who were good at riding and shooting, he took the initiative to pick up Cheng Gongying's 3,000 elite knights.

One hundred versus three thousand, it sounds too great to be comparable at all. However, the two sides were repeatedly entangled for ten days in the flat area between Jing Zhaoyin and Hongnong, and finally separated the winner.

The result is:

Lu Bu is victorious!

Although the cavalry in Liangzhou is quite strong in combat, when it comes to guerrilla raids, the Huns in the north are the ancestors of this aspect. Lu Bu wandered around the Southern Xiongnu many years ago and once played the role of a horse thief. This experience is not in vain.

Relying on the horse's physical strength is more sufficient, Lu Bu is like a wild wolf, firmly biting the Liangzhou cavalry in the rear. The counter-reconnaissance methods used by the people of Liangzhou could not hide Lu Bu's eyes at all. In many cases, Lu Bu didn't need to observe carefully, and he could discover the intentions of the people of Liangzhou with his peculiar "beastly spiritual sense".

Moreover, Lu Bu never gave the other party a chance to entangle. He knew very well that he had few people, and if he fought hand-to-hand, he would inevitably suffer losses. Therefore, every time Lu Bu launched an attack on the Liangzhou soldiers, he used his unparalleled cavalry and archery skills.

Deterred by the combat effectiveness of the Liangzhou cavalry, Lu Bu was not greedy. Every time he engaged, he would shoot up to twenty arrows, and he would retreat on his own initiative. But with Lu Bu's archery skills, how many of those unlucky arrow-hitters were able to leave a life?

After being attacked by Lu Bu several times in succession, Cheng Gongying, who was furious, decided to set a trap to hunt down Lu Bu and his gang. As a result, Lu Bu took advantage of the trap laid by Cheng Gongying, which led to the dispersion of his troops, and once again hit the Liangzhou cavalry unexpectedly. And what else can a trap that has just been laid out and then seen through it?

After being raided by Lu Bu this time, facing the more than thirty elite Liangzhou knights who died on the ground, Cheng Gongying could only be silent.

Cheng Gongying, who realized how difficult Lu Bu was, began to want to retreat. But Yan Xing, who was still young, couldn't swallow this breath. As the number one fierce general under Han Sui, Yan Xing is only one line away from the "Ten Thousand Enemies". The arrogant Yan Xing. Before fighting Lu Bu in person, he didn't think that the guy who only knew how to shoot arrows from a distance would be able to take advantage of himself in hand-to-hand combat.

Therefore, when Lu Bu came to harass again, Yan Xing did not forgive. With dozens of elite guards, they chased out more than ten miles. Seeing that Yan Xing didn't know the height of the sky, and dared to chase him with such a small number of troops, Lu Bu felt that he was being underestimated, so he generously gave Yan Xing the opportunity to fight head-on.

The outcome of the engagement was:

As soon as he closed, Yan Xing was shot off his helmet, cut off half of his scalp, and fled in embarrassment!

If it weren't for Lu Bu taking care of his horsepower, he wouldn't want the war horse to be too tired. I'm afraid that Yan Xing won't be able to come back this time. And the result of Yan Xing's injury and defeat made Cheng Gongying finally make up his mind to retreat.

However, Wu Jing, who succeeded Ji Ling in commanding the task of encircling and suppressing the cavalry in Liangzhou, was known for his prudence in the use of troops. In the face of the two foreign foot soldiers sent by the angry Yuan Shu in one go, if they wanted to escape under Wu Jing's strict blockade, they obviously had to pay a lot of price.

Wu Jing is Sun Jian's brother-in-law, and Lu Bu can look down on Ji Ling, Zhang Xun, and Qiao Rui under Yuan Shu, but he doesn't dare to snub Sun Jian's brother-in-law. Due to this. Lu Bu rarely cooperated with others amicably. With the mutual cooperation of Wu Jing and Lu Bu, three thousand Liangzhou elite riders. In the end, only about 2,000 successfully withdrew to Chang'an. Even Cheng Gongying, the chief general of the Liangzhou cavalry, was wounded in the final breakout battle.

Sun Jian, who relieved his worries and restored the smooth flow of the grain route, immediately launched a hearty and severe counterattack against the Liangzhou rebels. However, although he won this battle, he got a decapitation of 3,000 levels. The record of killing the big horse in Liangzhou also injured Sun Jian again. In the case of the main general's injury, the morale of the Yuan-Sun coalition army plummeted, and they were no longer able to advance to Xijing Chang'an.

Unable to continue advancing, Sun Jian's army could only begin to retreat. But. The risk of retreat is obviously much higher than that of marching into the army.

The next moment is the time for Ma Teng to exert his might.

Sun Ben, who was responsible for the retreat of the whole army, led Sun Jian's troops to fight and retreat. Helplessly, the Liangzhou rebels fully exerted their cavalry superiority and took turns to attack and harass the retreating Yuan Sun army. Within a hundred miles of withdrawal from the territory of Jingzhaoyin, the Yuan-Sun coalition army was defeated twice, losing tens of thousands of people.

Fortunately, at this time, Wu Jing and Lu Bu came to meet with their troops, which temporarily stopped the collapse trend of Yuan Sun's coalition army. Facing the Liangzhou cavalry, Lu Bu once again showed his toughness of "the first armed force in the Three Kingdoms".

After driving Cheng Gongying away, Lü Bu used this merit to ask Yuan Shu to increase his troops. Although Yuan Shu had a bad sense of Lu Bu, after all, he still had to use others to fight, so he pinched his nose and gave Lu Bu two thousand recruits.

Recruits can't go to the battlefield for the time being. Lu Bu handed over these soldiers to Zhang Liao and Gao Shun for training, and he still took more than 100 old brothers to the front line. This kind of behavior of privately expanding his own strength, but not doing his best to work for the "lord", immediately made Yuan Shu make a hard note for Lu Bu in his heart.

However, relying on more than 100 elite cavalry, Lu Bu actually repelled eighteen attacks on Liangzhou in one day. According to Wu Jing's incomplete statistics after the war, Lu Bu alone shot no less than 300 wolf-toothed goose feather arrows on this day, killing and wounding at least 200 enemy soldiers.

In the last two groups of Liangzhou rangers who came to attack, as soon as they saw Lu Bu's battle flag and the fiery "Chisuo" BMW under his crotch, they hurriedly retreated automatically, for fear of being hit by Lu Bu's magic arrows.

In addition, Zhu Jun, a veteran of the imperial court who occupied half of Henan Yin, also led troops to aid Sun Jian at this time. The addition of this new force made the Liangzhou army, which had been exhausted after months of fierce fighting, lose interest in continuing to fight.

As a result, with the strong assistance of Zhu Jun and Lu Bu, the Yuan-Sun coalition army, which had suffered heavy losses, finally succeeded in withdrawing to the starting point of Nanyang County. (To be continued......)

PS: Little Bubu is powerful. Personally, I think that Lu Bu is the kind of person who can be extremely powerful with hundreds of soldiers, but once the number of troops in his hands increases, his combat effectiveness will plummet. He was a good general, but not a good army commander.
